Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo in my back garden late in the day with the evening light shining behind the plant.Time
I am an amateur photographer and taking online lessons and my challenge for this photo was to catch the light behind the plant. So I wandered around my garden looking for opportunities to try to catch an image in the evening light. I stooped low too the ground with the sun behind the plant and took this photo. It was one of many practice shots that evening as I often walk in the Bush at the bottom of my garden or around it at this wonderful time of day.Lighting
I feel very fortunate to have taken this shot with the light just right. It has encouraged me to keep going and learn more especially as I often post my photos and many are macro shots as I endeavour to I prove my skills in so ething I love and have come across in my older years.Equipment
I used a Nikon DSLR 2300 and no tripodInspiration
Practising and trying to hone my photography skillsEditing
No I did not do much processing of this image except a little croppingIn my camera bag
I rarely take a bag with me as I take my dog who patiently waits while I am often on the ground taking macro shots of tiny plants in the native Bush around my homeFeedback
Take the time to wander in the Bush or even in your garden. It's great to smell the Rose's and even more fun to photograph them
